2011 Eric Kent Small Town Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
13.2% alc., pH
3.57, TA 0.61, 414 cases,$48. Release Spring 2013. 38% Cleary Ranch
and Michael Valentine, 23% Roberts Road, 23% Kiser/Vella, and Stiling.
Clones 777, Swan, Pommard, 667, 114 and 115.
·
Moderately light
reddish-purple color in the glass. Enchanting nose offering aromas of
exotically spiced black cherry and plum with a hint of smoky oak.
Elegant and soft on the palate, with juicy flavors of black cherries, black
raspberries and cardamom spice caressed by gentle tannins and ending on a
clean, bright, dark cherry note. One of the most suave Pinots ever from Eric
Kent. I like this wine for its seductive character.

2005 Sojourn Cellars Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
14.6% alc., 240 cases, $36. This wine is a blend of
grapes from two Sangiacomo Vineyards - Roberts Road and Vella.
·
A medium-bodied Pinot Noir which
needs air time to express itself. The nose is replete with rhubarb, exotic woods, toast and Xmas spice.
The ripe Pinot fruits tend to the dark flavors and are rustic and tart. The finish delivers a little heat but it is
not over the top.
